South Shore Zeigler IN 71222

I was never able to get out west to see the Milwaukee Road electrified territory back in the early 1970's. However, scenes like this remind me of those I've seen from out that way. We are looking west on the Chicago, South Shore & South Bend interurban at Zeigler, Indiana which is about 12 houses and the crossing of the Water Level and South Shore.

 

I'm not agonizing over the past, but sure would have been nice to be out here in the late 1970's to catch a Little Joe traversing these tracks. I could have been, just never did. Either way, it's still nice to think about what I could have seen and in my over-active mind, I'm seeing exactly want I missed out on! It's perfect in my mind.
